7 things every Ole Miss fan needs to know today

Auburn week is in full force, and you can definitely tell the Rebels remember what happened against the Tigers a year ago (more on that in a bit). Nevertheless, Ole Miss has to like the momentum it built in Saturday’s win against Texas A&M, and the Rebels hope it carries over to the road environment at Auburn.

Here are seven things to know:

Laquon Treadwell certainly knows who’s up next for Ole Miss. The talented wide receiver broke his leg while trying for the go-ahead score in last season’s loss to Auburn. When he was asked about if he was more motivated going into this week, he simply said, “Absolutely.”

The Rebels hope to have star defensive tackle Robert Nkemdiche back in the mix when they face the Tigers, and coach Hugh Freeze gave an update on Nkemdiche’s status. He also provided the latest on defensive back Tony Conner.

Following a big win over the Aggies, Ole Miss jumped two spots in this week’s Official SEC Country Power Poll. The Rebels came in at No. 4 in the poll, sandwiched between No. 3 Florida and No. 5 Mississippi State.

Freeze was obviously pleased with his team’s effort in the win against Texas A&M, but on the field isn’t the only place the Rebels are having success. Ole Miss is a hot name on the recruiting trail, and 4-star wide receiver Drake Davis told SEC Country that the Rebels are his No. 1 school right now.
